Extractions: The earliest buildings that were built in Greece , in the New Stone Age , are small houses or huts , and wooden walls around them for protection. Later there are bigger houses, and stone walls around the villages. By the Early Bronze Age , we find one bigger house in the middle of the village, and fancier, bigger stone walls. In the Late Bronze Age , under the influence of Western Asia , and the Minoans on Crete, there are palaces and big stone tombs , as well as paved roads and bridges, and dams (and more stone walls). During the Greek Dark Ages the palaces were burned, and the roads and bridges and dams mostly fell apart. But at the end of the Dark Ages, with the beginning of the Iron Age and the Archaic period in Greece, we see a new type of building: the temple for the gods . There are houses, but no more palaces. But roads and bridges and stone walls begin to be built again. In the Classical period , there are more temples , bigger and with new design ideas: the Parthenon is built in the 440's BC Democracy prevents the Greeks from building palaces or big tombs, because politically all men are supposed to be equal, and so it would look bad to have a big palace even if you could afford it. Instead, the Greeks build public buildings:

Places: A Landmark Himself, Kidney Remains Devoted To City's Architecture about Pittsburgh buildings, rivers and bridges, but the or contemporary styles fromother countries and eras. brought out Kidney's The architecture of Choice http://www.phlf.org/phlfnews/mediaclips/2002/020227PGWalterKidney.html
Extractions: Places: A landmark himself, Kidney remains devoted to city's architecture Wednesday, February 27, 2002 By Patricia Lowry, Post-Gazette architecture critic You have to envy Walter Kidney's commute. "You sort of miss things like trees and so on because you're above them," he said in his down-to-earth office at One Station Square, stacked with plat books dating to 1889 showing how Pittsburgh evolved from farmland to dense neighborhoods. "But it's a very nice outlook and a real surprise up there. You realize how the relationship of things to one another spatially is so different. You find that things are a few degrees off from where you think they ought to be." Kidney, who moved to his perch on Grandview last fall, has lived on Mount Washington since 1978, when he took up permanent residence here after moving in and out of the city most of his life. Late last month, when he celebrated his 70th birthday over lunch with a group of friends and colleagues at the Grand Concourse, Kidney officially became a Pittsburgh historic landmark so proclaimed the citation presented to him by PHLF's executive director, Louise Sturgess. Over more than 20 years, Kidney has written five books about Pittsburgh buildings, rivers and bridges, but the road to honorary landmark status was anything but direct.

Not only is the architecture superb and the climate pleasant, but there's a fairly relaxed atmosphere here, compared with many other Iranian towns. It's a city for walking, getting lost in the bazaar, walking in beautiful gardens and meeting people.
